Hi everyone,
I'm new around here, but am hoping this question is a) not something over-asked and b) something that can be answered! Please forgive me otherwise.
I'm 5 weeks with my first pregnancy, and I'm terrified of every little thing my body does. The thought of losing this miracle just tears me up! I called my doctor today and they can't get me in for my first appointment and scan until Nov. 24. That puts me at 11 weeks.
I know many people got their scans at 8, but the doctor said there's just no availability and "to wait it out."
Since this is my first, I'm so nervous about waiting until 11 weeks. I just want to know that everything is fine, and I feel like I can't make it that long. What if something is wrong and I go on blissfully unaware until then? I'd be devastated.
Do you have any thoughts or suggestions? What would you do? I don't really want to change clinics, but I guess that's an option, maybe? Not sure.
I appreciate any stories or thoughts. Thanks!
